Chapter 572: Good Brothers Come to Barbecue
The two discussed the situation in front of them for a while, discussing the charges and timing of pulling Wen Gushan down, and trying not to involve Mengmei again. [Full text reading]
"If you don't get Mengmei involved, who will be the informant? It can't be you, right? Then you are really powerful, and you know that Wen Gushan colluded with people outside. Gu Yun tapped the tip of Bai Ko's nose.
"Of course, the servant can't be supernatural and knows everything, so let it be on the guards, who drank at the wine stall and heard the conversation of Wen Gushan colluding with others. Anyway, what I want is a crime to explain to the whole government, and irrelevant people will not care about the reasons behind it at all, so there is no need to add more talking points to them. ”
"Okay, that's it."
The next day, Gu Yun sent two small teams of guards to follow and monitor Wang Xiaodong, the head chef of the imperial kitchen, find out his home environment, and sneak in to investigate whether there is a private collection of Bai's recipes at home.
Wang Xiaodong is a seven-grade official, although the official position is not high, but the various purchases in the imperial kitchen are sufficient, living in a large mansion with left and right courtyards, children and grandchildren around the knees, calling slaves and maids, and the life of the family is harmonious and beautiful.
In this broad daylight, the guards first started with the peripheral investigation, and they had to wait until the dead of night to climb over the wall and enter the house, and such a large mansion could not be turned over in one or two nights, who knows if there are any mechanisms such as secret rooms in this house.
Gu Yun and Bai Ko both knew that Wang Xiaodong was in a hurry, so after sending people, they didn't bother anymore, and let the guards adapt themselves, and they went out by car to meet the contractor to discuss the construction of the new factory.
The girls first waited for the prince to wash his hands and face and change his clothes, and then drank a cup of ginger tea to warm his body, and then Gu Yun was busy saying good night to the elders, and told his parents the results of the investigation so far.
Bai Ko took advantage of the fact that Shizi went to the elders' house, she first cooked a bowl of noodles for herself to deal with it, and at the same time beckoned the girls to prepare a pair of tools and vegetables for the iron plate roast, and then sent someone to invite Gu Jing to come over and eat with Shizi.
Gu Jing had already eaten his stomach at this time, sat in the house and teased the two of them, listening to the girl below passing the words outside the house, and hurriedly changed his clothes and walked to Zhongming Courtyard.
The two brothers happened to meet in Gu Yun's main courtyard, so they entered the main hall together, and in the room, all the preparations for the roast were also prepared, and the two washed their hands and sat down at the table.
Gu Yun waved away the other girls, leaving Bai Ko alone to wait.
Gu Jing's gaze glanced back and forth on Gu Yun and Bai Ke a few times, and took a shallow sip of the wine glass.
"It's past dinner time, you two just came back, and then you invited me to eat barbecue, is there something to say?"
"Isn't it time for a new factory to start construction in the next year?" Gu Yun smiled, looking like a well-behaved brother who asked his brother for help.
"You don't come to this set, just say, what are you going to do?"
"I spent a whole day on the construction site, and the contractor told me the truth that if the new factory can be put into operation this year, it will take so many workers to start construction at the same time." Gu Yun took out a piece of paper from his arms, spread it out and handed it to Gu Jing.
Gu Jing hooked his neck and browsed roughly, raising his eyebrows.
"Can't the contractor find enough workers to build a house?"
"Of course, the contractor can find someone, but I suddenly thought that the people in the house have multiplied for generations, and now they are overcrowded, and many strong laborers are idle at home, and their lives are wasted."
"There are strong laborers in the house, but building a house is a technical job, and their group of new hands can only do small brick work on the construction site, but they can't do anything that has anything to do with technology."
"It's okay, after building a house, I stayed directly and worked as a worker in the factory, isn't this all to consume the surplus population in the house, give those idle laborers a chance to make money, and save them from doing nothing all day long, and causing trouble on the street in the name of the Yeguo Mansion."
"Yo, you've planned it all, it's a good idea."
"So, that's why I called the second brother here this big night, ask the third uncle and third aunt tomorrow, do you have any extra strong labor under the name of the third room that can be transferred to me?"
"No problem, I'll ask tomorrow after breakfast."
"Male or female, I want it."
"What do you want a woman to do on a construction site?"
"Cooking, laundry, and laundry, there are so many men on the construction site who eat, drink, and Lazar, and don't all have to be taken care of by women, maybe when my workshop is built, there will be a few couples among them."
Gu Jingzheng lowered his head and sent a piece of freshly roasted beef into his mouth, and choked with a smile when he heard this, almost getting hot.
"You're really addicted to matchmaking."
"Let's have fun." Gu Yun picked up the roast on his plate and blew a few breaths, and stuffed it into his mouth, "I personally adhere to the principle of voluntary registration, I don't force it if I don't want to come, otherwise if I am in a depressed mood and give me passive sabotage on the construction site, I can't stand it, but second brother, if you have any use, you can also throw it to me if you are annoying." ”
"If you want to pick up strong laborers from the name of the public middle school and the long house, it is naturally their own volition, and there are only a few people under my name in the third room, I know that many people have the idea of waiting for my wife or being my sister's dowry in the future, if you want any of them to voluntarily come out and transfer to your name to be a worker, it is really better for me to directly allocate a group of people to you."
"So, just give me anything you don't like to look at and use your hands inconveniently, as long as I have sound limbs and no disabilities, I can work, it doesn't matter if I look beautiful or ugly."
"Male or female?" Gu Jing's heart suddenly moved, and he thought of someone.
"Male or female. Someone chosen? ”
Gu Jing suddenly looked up at Bai Ko, who immediately put down the clip of the roast, thinking that he wanted to avoid it, but he was called by Gu Jing again, not asking her to go.
"Let's say, there's someone you don't mind, you can take it tomorrow."
"Who?" Gu Yun and Bai Qiao looked curious.
"Mengmei, my cook."
"Tired of it?" Gu Yun asked, Bai Ko lowered his head and put a bunch of vegetables on the iron plate.
"No one in my courtyard can tolerate her, three days and two ends of all kinds of disputes, a few days ago she also lost the hairpin I rewarded her, fortunately it was dropped in the white house by her to pick up and return it, I think she seems to be a little unrelenting recently, since your subordinates are short of people, simply take away, her cooking skills for the workers to cook is still qualified."
"Yes, I don't mind at all, and I'm not waiting in front of my eyes, if she can't do a good job on the construction site, I'll sell it directly." Since Gu Jing took the initiative to mention that he wanted to send Mengmei, Gu Yun immediately went down the steps.
"Then it's decided, when I'm done picking someone, I'll send the deed together."
"Don't delay too late, you must give it to me before the twelfth day of the first month, I will sort out the roster, and I will send them to the construction site after the holiday."
"Don't worry, you won't miss anything."
As soon as the two brothers said yes, they didn't say anything, just buried their heads and enjoyed the roast.
